Lee left fuming over knee injury at training center

WORLD No. 1 Lee Chong Wei was left fuming after an injury at Malaysia’s new training center cost him what may have been his last shot at the All England Championship, reports said.

The 34-year-old, who was gunning for his fourth title at the prestigious tournament next month, will be out for weeks after he slipped and fell at the new Academy Badminton Malaysia outside Kuala Lumpur on Saturday. Lee, who has signalled he may retire this year, tore a medial collateral ligament in his left knee in the incident, the Star daily said yesterday. “This injury could have been avoided,” Lee was reported as saying. Lee, a silver medalist in the last three Olympics, said he had complained about the new center’s slippery court mats but “nothing was done”.
